I'd rather see it integrated into the GIMP module but if you prefer to
work outside the GIMP tree for some more time, that's up to you.

we should discuss this. Generally GimpPreview is perfectly acceptable
as a name but since we use it in the core already we should consider
to look for another name to avoid confusion.

I don't think it has ever been scheduled with a fixed date. It's ready
when it's ready but we are now trying to push things a bit. I'm
putting some pressure on you just to let you know that we'd rather
like to see a working-yet-not-perfect plug-in preview widget than no
plug-in preview widget at all.


Salut, Sven
